I’ve been asked to write a piece on how I record and mix music using
mainly open source software (the one exception being the linuxDSP
plugins). This article is intended for publishing on Libre Music
Production as well as my own website and is written for all those
interested in setting up a Linux home studio and using Ardour to
record and mix their music, with the help of numerous free and open
source tools and plugins.

I believe in Open Source. I think it is a fantastic way for people to
experience working together passionately from all around the globe and
share the results for others to use, discuss, contribute to or develop
further.

In case you are wondering where the old content has gone—it’s
still there. I have moved everything to
http://gezeiten.org/pre-2014. Most of
the old post URLs should still be working, so whatever links to my
website exist out there, they should be ok.

It’s been a while. I haven’t been writing anything on this website since
late 2012, which makes nearly two years of inactivity. I had been planning
an update and redesign of the whole thing for a long time, so here we go.
